About this listen
A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Another thrilling domestic suspense novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Not a Happy Family
“The twists come as fast [as] you can turn the pages.”—People
“I read this novel at one sitting, absolutely riveted by the storyline. The suspense was beautifully rendered and unrelenting!”—Sue Grafton
It all started at a dinner party. . .
A domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors—a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives. . .
Anne and Marco Conti seem to have it all—a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. But one night, when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. Suspicion immediately lands on the parents. But the truth is a much more complicated story.
Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they've kept for years.
What follows is the nerve-racking unraveling of a family—a chilling tale of deception, duplicity, and unfaithfulness that will keep you breathless until the final shocking twist.

The Couple Next Door will keep you glued the pages in search of the answer. Even then, you'll never guess the truth...until it's too late.”—Lisa Gardner, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Find Her

Good Narration, predictable story.
I enjoyed the narrator and the beginning of the story but as it went on it was too easy to put all the pieces together. For all the hype I heard about this book it was nothing close to being that good.

Really dysfunctional families
Plot very suspense filled. It’s what kept me reading.
Characters well developed.
I hated being involved I even vicariously. With these people.

Unsatisfying
Trying to not give a spoiler: was easy to predict who the bad guy was quite early on in the novel. Worst part was the unbelievable consequences to one of the participants of a crime.

Predictable
The story was very predictable and dry. The narrator was annoying. She would put on ridiculous voices for the characters. It didn't work.

it was okay
I figured out from the middle who the bad guys were. Anne (main character) and Marco (another main character) are very stupid and both very whiney. The ending was absolutely horrible, they just opened up a whole new plot.
This book had a lot of potential.
Also the narrator, like many have mentioned is horrible and sarcastic.

Really good!
I couldn’t stop listening to this book. Lots of twists, just when you think you’ve figured it out, another twist.
